Pan Fried Rosemary Potatoes

MY POTATO NAMED ROSEMARY

These easy to make Rosemary Potatoes go well with my Skewered Lamb recipe or any other meat and chicken recipe.

Rosemary is native to the Mediterranean region and compliments oily foods such as fish or lamb. As far as Italian cuisine is concerned, lamb is rarely made without using rosemary. This aromatic herb can also be used to flavor oils, vinegars and vegetables.

Most of all, rosemary is great with potatoes. When I make these Pan Fried Rosemary Potatoes I use dried rosemary that I ground down to a powder in a coffee grinder that I use just for herbs and spices. I would recommend fresh rosemary for this recipe if available.

INGREDIENTS

6 small red potatoes or small new white potatoes, sliced in half

1 small yellow onion
